Facadeprinter prints by shooting paintballs Answered

Want some art nice and big on a wall and don't want to break out a ladder? The Facadeprinter in Germany is something that can help. It's a computer-controlled paintball gun that can make paintings 8m tall and 10m wide. The computer takes into account the shape of the target so there's no distortion in the final piece. Check out the video to see it in action.

There is. The paintball shell is unnecessary for this, and could be considered a waste. A simple stream or blast of paint could work. However. a windy day would be more likely to ruin the trajectory without the nice, hard spherical shape created by the shell.

Add a little motion detector to kick it off and I think that this would make an awesome addition to a paint ball gun course, a nice ambush booby trap. Take the wrong path through the maze and it paints "DEAD" on your cover alls. LOL Awesome work guys.
